Fury’s garage/man cave project
- Thread starter Sgt Fury
- Start date
It’ll have heat but only a wall unit for AC.
Poles were put in ground with concrete, then when the bldg is done, they’re going to put in 4” of reenforced concrete. I was surprised how deep they put the poles in.
I’m jelly! Friggin gonna be awesome when complete and furnished.....
That’s going to be bad ass. After it’s done ya got to promise to tell us about the first argument ya have in it with wife.
From one man cave guy to another. Your gonna have a lot of fun in that thing!!

What kind of heat are you putting in it? It looks like a great candidate for a radiant floor system heated by a hot water heater. Once you get that concrete up to 100 degrees. You'll be comfier than a big in a rug

Just regular forced air gas heat. The duct work will be up in the attic.

Who needs a clock when your retired? Figured at your age you’d go pee every two hours anyway [emoji23].
They finished the garage today...three days total. They got it done real fast! Calling tomorrow to find out when the concrete is coming...they originally told me 7-10 days after completion but with this pandemic going on, maybe they are short of work and can get it done faster. After that, the garage doors go in then the blow in insulation in the attic. They couldn’t get brown entry doors but did give me a gallon of paint that they said is a perfect match. Then comes the fun part...finishing the inside!

WOW! THEY WERE FAST!!!! LOOKS AWESOME TOO SARGE!!!!!
I believe they were Amish...but not Shiite Amish.WOW! THEY WERE FAST!!!! LOOKS AWESOME TOO SARGE!!!!!
They didn’t have beards and the standard Amish clothing but my friend was over watching them work and said he thought they were Amish by the way they talked. I was very impressed by the way they worked as a team. The company name is Shirk Pole Buildings and they are from Pennsylvania.
A wall is going between the garage part and the man cave. After insulating the outside walls and running electric, the garage is going to be finished with Sheetrock. The man cave is going to be knotty pine.
Still need to track down a pinball machine but a friend of mine has three arcade video games that he wants to get rid of so I may pick up one of those also. One is centipede, on is galactica, and I forget what the third one was.
That is crazy... I’m on week 5,792 of a dog kennel build and haven’t plugged a saw in yet.
